Chapter 1608: My Time Is Precious
The nine-colored lotus was no god-grade weapon, but it was definitely not weaker than a god-grade weapon. The three weapons were shot down from the sky before they could deal any damage to the Imperial Nether Domain.
Li An, Zhuang Yifan, and Lu Shenchuan finally had a trace of panic on their faces. They were the celestial children of the Celestial Alliance and had extraordinary combat strength. But in the Imperial Nether Domain, they were constantly suppressed, making it impossible for them to use their full strength.
This suppression was the main reason why the Imperial Nether Domain was so difficult to deal with. The three were not the type to sit around and give up. As celestial children, they naturally had formidable trump cards.
Clear Sky Above!
A dazzling green erupted from Li An’s body as the projection of a clear sky appeared above him. The projection combined with the Clear Sky Divine Sword and unleashed wave after wave of attacks at the level of a second-stage Rebirth Realm cultivator.
He was demonstrating enough strength to contend against Zi Yao. In fact, this attack was already slightly stronger than what Zi Yao was capable of. It was no wonder he was ranked so high among the celestial children.
Zhuang Yifan and Lu Shenchuan also mustered all their strength. The two possessed secret techniques that could boost their strength. With their secret techniques and god-grade weapons, they unleashed a strength beyond their limits.
The other Celestial Alliance members naturally wouldn’t stay idle as the three fought. They all erupted with strength, releasing clump after clump of Saint Realm energy that combined together to break all the chains in the domain.
Without a doubt, it would be somewhat strenuous for Xiang Shaoyun to suppress all of them alone, but that did not mean that he would release them just because it was difficult. “Suppress!”
With a roar, the nine-colored lotus erupted with a dreadful power that fused with the soul power in the domain. The entire Imperial Nether Domain then underwent an astonishing change, and the suppression became even stronger than before. Everyone felt themselves becoming much weaker, and the chains further tightened around their bodies. Some of the Saints’s bodies even started falling apart due to the chains.
The Imperial Nether Domain was an excellent ability for group battle, and one could only break free of its suppression if one was much stronger than Xiang Shaoyun. Apart from the three celestial children, there were also seven peak pseudo-Gods in the domain. These were all the ones capable of protecting themselves despite the domain’s massive suppression.
The nine-colored lotus hung high above them as wave after wave of energy crushed down to suppress everyone in the domain. At this point, Xiang Shaoyun could kill a large number of them with a mere thought.
“Xiang Shaoyun, are you really going to push it further?” questioned Li An as a sense of apprehension welled within him.
“You people were the ones pushing it too far,” said Xiang Shaoyun mercilessly.
“State your terms. What do you need to release us?” said Zhuang Yifan.
“Release us, and we’ll let this slide. Otherwise, the Celestial Alliance won’t spare you,” threatened Lu Shenchuan.
They were finally feeling anxious. All of them were afraid that Xiang Shaoyun would kill them all in a fit of anger. Even if they did manage to survive, suffering such losses would only result in punishment from the Celestial Alliance.
“Hand over half your contribution points, and I’ll let you go,” said Xiang Shaoyun after giving it some thought.
He did not intend to totally make an enemy out of the Celestial Alliance, but he still needed to even things out with them. Thus, taking half their contribution points would be a good way of alleviating the anger in his heart.
“Xiang Shaoyun, that’s too much,” said Li An with a frown.
“Is that so?” asked Xiang Shaoyun as he channeled even more strength into his chains.
Wails started ringing out as over 10 people had their saint bodies fall apart. Death seemed to be becoming nearer and nearer.
“Xiang Shaoyun, stop! We can talk this out!” shouted Li An gloomily.
“Half your points,” stated Xiang Shaoyun firmly.
“Fine. Half our points,” Li An hurriedly agreed.
“Go on, then. My time is precious,” said Xiang Shaoyun.
Li An was the first to take out his contribution slip and transfer half the points over. Even a fool could see the indignance in his eyes while he was doing so. One could say that Xiang Shaoyun had thoroughly offended him.
Zhuang Yifan, Lu Shenchuan, and the others did not dare to hesitate either. They all knew that they should prioritize getting out of the Imperial Nether Domain before thinking of anything else.
Xiang Shaoyun’s contribution points rose rapidly after gathering half the points of over 500 people. He was so happy that he couldn’t stop smiling.
“Xiang Shaoyun, can you remove the Imperial Nether Domain now?” asked Zhuang Yifan with his eyes narrowed.
“Of course,” said Xiang Shaoyun in a carefree manner as he withdrew the domain.
All the Celestial Alliance members heaved a breath of relief. At the same time, they all looked at Xiang Shaoyun furiously. They had never been placed in such a disadvantaged position before.
“Xiang Shaoyun, I’ll kill—” Lu Shenchuan was the first to lose his temper, but before he could flare up, Li An forced him back and said, “Calm down. We need to leave first.”
“Junior brother, don’t tell me you’re going to just swallow this!” said Lu Shenchuan as he turned his head around.
“If you have the confidence to deal with his Imperial Nether Domain, feel free to stay,” said Li An flatly. He then said to the others, “Leave.”
He might have remained calm, but fury was welling in his heart.
I won’t be a man if I don’t pay him back for this! he swore inwardly.
The Celestial Alliance members left gloomily without doing anything else. However, it was clear to everyone that a grudge had formed between the two parties.
“Overlord, won’t we offend the Celestial Alliance doing this?” asked Devil Concubine anxiously.
“So what? If we’re not friends, we’ll be enemies. They will be the ones to make that choice,” said Xiang Shaoyun indifferently.
With his recent increase in strength and the numerous trump cards he had, he would fear no one from the Celestial Alliance apart from their Gods.
“The Celestial Alliance, The Immortal Road Chamber, and The Guardians Guild are all tyrants of the dominion. Of the four superpowers, the Guangling Palace is the only organization you haven’t offended,” said Yu Caidie with a bitter smile.
She knew Xiang Shaoyun was someone who would rather die than yield, but it was truly worrying that he had offended so many powerful enemies at the same time.
“Don’t worry too much. It’s not that bad,” said Xiang Shaoyun as he rustled Yu Caidie’s hair.
Before long, the three fellows cultivating woke up from their meditation one after another. Each of them had benefited and grown considerably from their cultivation session. Xiang Shaoyun had the group continue moving. Only two months had passed, and a lot of dangers still awaited them.
As they traveled, they encountered more and more danger. The aliens they encountered also became stronger than before. A moment of carelessness could very well result in the elimination of the entire group. One day, Xiang Shaoyun stumbled upon a prior opponent of his, Song Tiandao.
